    We had previously been to the location in DC so we had high expectations and they were partially met! If you go try the whole fish, and celebration rice but skip the kebabs, the value is not quite there for the portion size. The Turkish coffee is excellent, and the staff was kind and caring to check up on us several times to ensure we were having a good experience which we really appreciated. Additionally, we were celebrating a birthday and they surprised us with candle in our dessert which again we thought was very sweet. Our guests from out of town loved the ambience and they are extremely picky. Thank you.
